Luke. Clem's big bro. He's just a really likable guy, he treats Clem as an equal and seems to have everyone's best interests at heart. He offers us food, warmth and shelter. He never seemed to want to put us in the shed but he was outnumbered and definitely regrets it as evidenced when Clem brings it up.
Uncle Pete. Him and Luke are the first two we meet. He trusts us and believes us about the dog bite so if it wasn't for him, then we would probably be dead. I also like the fact he tells us a embarrassing story about Nick to make up for Nick almost shooting us. Shame he left us too soon.
Nick. I'm not actually sure if Nick is third. He's definitely a clutz but he's a good guy with good intentions as proven by the fact he owns up to his mistake and I promised Pete I will look after him so..
Sarah. Actually surprising myself by putting Sarah in 4th. The whole wanting to be best friends and "Pinky promise is forever" was creepy as hell, but then you have to remember she's not been around another kid for quite a while and her fathers been sheltering her all through the Apocalypse. I get that he wants to protect her but I don't think that helps her mentality. My Clem is going to be honest with her and teach her how to survive because someone should and Clem isn't going to lie.
Rebecca. Another surprise because she was horrible to us in episode 1 but I knew that there would be a reason behind it and I feel she redeemed herself in episode 2. Not only apologizing but also talking to us about baby names!
Carlos - It's not a case of disliking him but he couldn't tell a dog bite from a walker bite so he decided to lock us in a shed before treating us. Nice, real nice. Also, like I said with Sarah, I feel Carlos should be preparing her. Just think if Sarah had been through all the stuff Clem had been through, there's no way she'd still be alive because she wouldn't know what to do in any of those situations.
Alvin. It's not that I dislike Alvin but he needs more development. He's a wimp and gives up too easily as evidence by the fact a) he wants to help but backs down because of Rebecca b) He gives us a juice box c) He wants to surrender to carver. Also asks us to keep food a secret so Rebecca can have it. I know she's pregnant but that's not cool man.
I don't really have anything against the Cabin Group. So far, I like everyone of them. But here is my ranking.
Nick: He is currently my favorite character of Season 2. What draw me, are his flaws, his back-story and his father-like relationship with his uncle. He make mistakes, which I can relate. Not everyone is perfect, especially not in the Apocalypse. But he isn't useless. He can fight walkers and he shows bravery and selflessness when he draw the walkers away so Clementine could have a bigger chance of escaping. When he makes mistakes, while he is quick to defend himself, he later began to admit that it was a mistake and shows remorse. We know more about him than any of the Cabin Group. We know about his past, his friendship with Luke and his relationship with his uncle who despite outwardly seems stained was clearly close. He is the most developed of the Cabin Group so far. I was very happy, when he survived my first playthrough in Episode 2.
Pete: I like Pete. It was clear that he was a good man who wanted to be a father-figure to Nick so he can be toughen up in the Apocalypse. I was very sad when he died.
Luke: I feel he is a good character. He cares about the well-being of his group and cares about Clementine. I like their brother-sister relationship and how Luke treats her like an equal. He is also reliable and capable when it comes to fighting walkers.
Carlos: I guess I could relate to him because we played as Lee in Season 1. You could understand his protective attitude toward his daughter and she clearly means a lot to him. While, he may seems stern and cold at first, episode 2 shows that he can be kind and caring to his group. He shows leadership skills and is a doctor which makes him reliable.
Rebecca: Now at first, I hate Rebecca a lot when she first appeared in Episode 1. But when I saw her vulnerable side later during the episode, you began to understand that there was something that greatly troubles this woman. The fact that the baby is coming and it might not be Alvin's, made me cut her some slack. During the confrontation at the dinner table, I choose to stay silent. Episode 2 redeemed her for me and I like the scene where she ask if Clementine wanted to listen to her stomach. It was touching.
Alvin: It is funny, there is something about Alvin that reminds me of my uncle. it is perhaps his good-nature and caring for his wife that made me like him. I wish to know more about him. I want to know the story on why he killed Carver's friend. What bumps him down for me was that I haven't seen him fighting walkers yet and he hasn't made any noteworthy impact during the story yet. Hopefully it will be explained in Episode 3 and Alvin gets more development.
Sarah: Now I don't dislike Sarah. She seems like a sweet kid. But back in episode 1, there was something that creeps me out about her. It made me fear her and more so when Carlos told Clementine to stay away from her. In Episode 2, I was again in fear when she show that she has found a gun. I was like, where did she get it? I sense that in the later episodes, something gruesome will happen to Sarah or something she will do.
In Alvin's defense, surrendering to Carver was a matter of thinking about others, even though, as Rebecca stated, it was his life that was on the line. He wanted to protect Carlos, but also keep him alive for Rebecca's sake. I find that more admirable than Kenny's "never give up until someone I care about is put in danger, and screw everyone else" approach that got Walter killed. This is not to say that Carver is absolved of blame (he pulled the trigger, it's his doing), but you have to pick your battles wisely. Kenny didn't.
